Configuring data source settings
The data source settings of the Document Import Tool determine:
- Where the import configuration file will be saved (for later reuse)
- Where the data file containing the imported documents’ property values is located and, if the data file contains multiple tables, which table to import
- The name of the field in the data file that contains pointers to the document files to be imported
To configure the data source settings:
- Click DataSource in the left pane. The DataSource property page opens in the right pane.
- Select options and type text using the descriptions in the following table.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|

Database |
Click Browse, select the appropriate file type in Files of type, and select an existing file containing the path and property data for the documents you want to import. See Creating an import data source file for guidelines on creating a suitable file. |

If the data source field contains a relative path or only file names, select The field contains relative path and type either the base path (that is common to all relative paths) or the parent folder (of all the file names) in Base path. |
